Box: C-Nor and I had a falling out after I switched to another dojo.

1. The Expendables 2 - $34m / $34m / $100m
2. Sparkle - $18m / $18m / $50m
3. The Bourne Legacy - $17m / $71m / $112m
4. Paranorman - $16m / $16m / $55m
5. Odd Life of Timothy Green - $14m / $20m / $60m
6. The Campaign - $13m / $52m / $84m
7. Hope Springs - $10.5m / $37m / $75m
8. The Dark Knight Rises - $10m / $409m / $438m
9. Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days - $4.5m / $40m / $50m
10. Ice Age: Continental Drift - $3.5m / $151m / $160m

For it now being the latter half of August, this is a pretty strong weekend.  Expendables 2 will do enough for there to be an Expendables 3.  8 movies will do $10m+.  Very nice.  Sparkle is tracking in low teens, but its the exact type of movie that surprises.  Total Recall falls out of the top 10 after two weeks.  Ouch.  Hopefully, that'll teach studios to not just throw a bunch of visual effects on a name film and hope that audiences flock.
